Amboseli Serena Safari Lodge

Amboseli Serena Safari Lodge is nestled in a dense growth of acacia trees in adjacent to a gentle natural spring. Mount Kilimanjaro creates the most magnificent backdrop to this resort and stands at 6, 000 meters high. As you arrive at the lodge you will observe something that is part if the dedication to conserving the fragile environment of the African bush. Guests are invited to plant a tree assisting in the reestablishing of a forest that was becoming barren land from the herds of elephants tearing up the trees for food.

The lodge blends effortlessly into the landscape and was build with conservation in mind and by preserving the ecology through its sensitive materials used in the building process. Each of the 96 bedrooms is unique with African murals painted by local artists, masai crafts and motifs that bring Africa into this living space.
